ResInsight

ResInsight is an open source, cross-platform 3D visualization and post-processing tool for reservoir models and simulations.

Key Features

  • Specialized Visualizations: Tailored for efficient interpretation of reservoir simulation data with visualizations of properties, faults, and wells
  • Performance-Oriented: Exploits multi-core CPUs and GPUs for highly responsive operation
  • Statistical Analysis: Handles large numbers of realizations with built-in statistical calculations
  • Python Integration: Enables powerful result manipulation and computations with two-way data exchange
  • GNU Octave Integration: Enables powerful result manipulation and computations with two-way data exchange
  • Extensible Framework: Supports additional data sources and visualization methods (solvers, seismic data, CSEM, geomechanics)
  • Eclipse Integration: Supports export to Eclipse input formats for simulation cycles and parameter studies

Supported Input Formats

  • Eclipse binary output (.GRID, .EGRID files with corresponding .INIT, .XNNN, and *.UNRST files)
  • Selected Eclipse input file sections
  • Grid information with cell property data sets

Technology Stack

ResInsight utilizes:

  • Equinor/resdata and OPM/opm-common libraries for Eclipse result file access
  • Qt for the application framework
  • Qwt for plotting functionality
  • vcpkg for dependency management

Platform Support

ResInsight is cross-platform with automated testing on:

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
  • Ubuntu
  • Windows 11

Documentation

Development

Source Code

git clone git://github.com/OPM/ResInsight.git

Minimum Requirements

  • gcc 13
  • clang 19
  • CMake 3.15
  • MSVC 2022 17.4
These requirements are defined by used features in c++23 like std::stacktrace and std::expected.

Dependencies

Most dependencies are managed using vcpkg as defined in vcpkg.json
